My girlfriend wants me to go to a haunted house with her...

[hankyje]

Only problem is, I'm a giant pusillanimous individual when it comes to those and I usually can't go through them. Any advice? I don't want to look like a pusillanimous individual in front of my girlfriend.

The manliest thing you can do is admit your discomfort.

Go through with it and it will be fine.  If anything she will be just as scared and it will be fun for both of you.

Bring a lantern and you will be fine.

Cuddle if she gets scared.

Last year I went to my first haunted house with my girlfriend (we broke up though)
Don't worry about being a chicken, I HATE scary stuff, and I had a blast. They are designed and MEANT to scare you. And if you get scared, SING. My girlfriend thought it was the funniest thing, because I started singing in my group of 5 through the haunted corn maze. I sang 99 bottles of beer on the wall. You know what happened? ALL of the people working in the maze sang WITH us, and it almost turned into a chant for that maze.
It really isn't anything worth getting all crazy worried over. Worst case scenario is you scream like a little girl and have a good laugh (unless you have bladder malfunctions when someone in a costume screams at you from 3 feet away. Then you should probably claim you caught the flu on the day of the trip.)

Good luck to you

but honestly i have yet to see a haunted house that isn't just lazily placed wax figures in a hallway.
if you're lucky, it's not even scary at all(even though i'm not sure what your "scaredy level" is so yeah)
if you're luckier, she'll be scared too
if you're even luckier, you won't be scared and she'll be scared and you'll cuddle
if you're even even luckier, both of you will be scared and you'll cuddle even more

i need to live more :(

This is what I was planning to do. I haven't been to one in a while (like two years) and last time I made a scene, I'm hoping I'm over it now.

My internet lagged, sorry bout that double post

One little scare ought'a do you some good.

Being a wuss actually brings all the ladies.

Find out. Tell a friend or parent to get a scary mask, and sometime within the next few days, when you least expect it, have them scare the crap out of you the best they can.

If you wake up half naked, torn pants, and a Hulk-shaped chunk of wall missing from the room, then you probably shouldn't go.
